'''Creator/TerryPratchett''': I can explain all this. Firstly, the Discworld is ''not a real place''. It's scenery for the novels. Anyway, there's no reason why worlds should all develop in the same way. The Greeks had all the necessary theoretical knowledge and technical ability to invent the wind-up gramophone. The steam-powered gramophone, come to that. They just never did it.

->'''Hilda Chester''': How are your people able to walk -- I mean, travel -- faster than light, when the rest of your arts are so simple?\\
'''Captain Togram''': They are not! We make gunpowder, we cast iron and smelt steel, we have spyglasses to help our steerers guide us from star to star. We are no savages huddling in caves or shooting at each other with bows and arrows.\\
'''Chester''': We have known all these things you mention for hundreds of years, but we did not think anyone could walk -- damn, I keep saying that instead of 'travel' -- faster than light. How did your people learn to do that?\\
'''Togram''': We discovered it for ourselves. We did not have to learn it from some other starfaring race, as many folk do.\\
'''Chester''': But how did you discover it?\\
'''Togram''': How do I know? I'm a soldier; what do I care for such things? Who knows who invented gunpowder or found out about using bellows in a smithy to get the fire hot enough to melt iron? These things happen, that's all.
